The Springfield M1A National Match 308 with Stainless Steel Barrel represents the pinnacle of precision semi-automatic rifle engineering from Springfield Armory.

Chambered in .308 Winchester (7.62x51mm NATO), this National Match variant is meticulously assembled using hand-selected components to achieve sub-MOA performance potential. The stainless steel barrel is not merely cosmetic; it provides superior corrosion resistance, consistent bore dimensions under thermal stress, and extended service life compared to standard carbon steel barrels.

Overview

This model features a 22-inch stainless steel barrel with a 1:11 twist rate, optimized for stabilizing heavy match-grade .308 projectiles. The National Match front and rear sights are fully adjustable for windage and elevation, allowing fine-tuned point-of-impact correction. The rifle includes a glass-filled nylon stock with a ventilated handguard, providing a stable shooting platform while reducing felt recoil. The two-stage military trigger is tuned to a crisp 4.5 to 5.0-pound pull weight, eliminating creep and over-travel.
